Packages

The following shows the packages and their purpose.  If you're adding code to CloudStack, please read this over to decide where the code should be placed.

Notes

utils

cloud-util.jar

utilities Utility methods that can be used in any project

 

api

cloud-api.jar

REST API, Agent API, and Java API definitions

 

core

cloud-core.jar

ServerResource implementations.

Remember that each ServerResource should be deployable in both a management server and in a remote agent container.

Core is also being converted to be one project per ServerResource, as how ovm OVM is done today.

server

cloud-server.jar

Management Server

 

agent

cloud-agent.jar

Agent Container

 

ovm

cloud-ovm.jar

ServerResource for Oracle VM

The future of ServerResource packaging.

agent-simulator

 

Simulated ServerResource for scale and regression test.

  Will be very useful if your work does not involve

vmware-base

 

ServerResource for VmWare VMware

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dependencies

CloudStack build dependencies reflect the design principal of CloudStack and, therefore, should not be changed.  The packages , core, ovm, agent-simulator, and vmware-base are all ServerResource implementations and are only based off of the cloud-api package.  By doing this, these packages are designed to not access the database.  The package , cloud-agent , is based off of cloud-api because the serialization and deserialization code are in that package but; however, ideally, cloud-agent is only a container and should be based off of cloud-util. 

Future

CloudStack will move toward the following package and build dependencies.
